Corvids featuring again in this week's birding in the city.
You studiously count the birds on your patch - then a Buzzard flies over. 2 crows & 2 Magpies became a noisy 15 crows & 6 Magpies until the Buzzard left the scene.
Patch record 53 Magpie - previously <15!

Still can’t find my really old notebooks in my wasp riddled loft!
Luckily with the power of the internet I can back fill nearly all my old lifers, from the 90s.
Sociable plover in 1991, DC cormorant, GS plover, GS cuckoo etc etc.
#birdtrack might have a meltdown at all these 35 year old rarities

Excited to hear a Brambling in Sheffield this morning thinking it was a #bedfordshire ✔️, checked on. #birdtrack and our yard is on the Beds/Bucks border and I’ve had them over the yard twice now🤦🏻♂️, so my 3rd Brambling for Beds.

According to #birdtrack I don’t have Canary island Robin on my list!
I’m pretty bloody sure I saw one and heard them singing in the forest of La Gomera!

Putting most of 2003/04 into #birdtrack on a wild and wet afternoon with the fire on.
Yank Robin in Cornwall was the best.
Got to go in the loft to find the rest of my notebooks. Full of dead wasps and old kids toys.

After a slow start to October, recent easterly winds have boosted arrivals of Woodcock, coming from Russia, Fennoscandia and the Baltics.
Unfortunately Woodcock are prone to colliding with buildings. If you find a dead Woodcock, please do report to BirdTrack or email woodcock@bto.org

Do you put these on BirdTrack or eBird? Asking as I am entering data for Dorset Bird Club, so don't want to double dip if you do.

BirdTrack graph for Woodcock shows that few continental birds have arrived in Britain & Ireland.
To conserve UK breeding population, most people think shooting season should not open on 1 October*

If anyone is going down to Sker Point this weekend, please look out for Golden Plover, which are regularly seen down there, and submit a count, via BirdTrack if possible. Diolch! 🙏 #BirdingWales
This weekend is the International Golden Plover Census🌍🪶
If you fancy another outing to your WeBS site, we would love for you to do another count so we can feed more golden plover data into the census, or you can log your plovers in BirdTrack if you want to go elsewhere!📋

Out birding this weekend? If you spot any Golden Plover, don't forget to log them in BirdTrack to contribute to the international census 👉 www.the-soc.org.uk/pages/birdtr...
This weekend, 17-18 October, is the International Golden Plover Census. WeBS data will be included in the census, but if you see any flocks of Golden Plover away from wetlands and are able to record a count, we would be very grateful if you could enter this to BirdTrack.

Please look out for Golden Plover this weekend and add any you see to BirdTrack. A flock of around 80 are currently on the Long Mynd between Shooting Box and the trig point, along with 3 Brambling 🙂

A bit more digitalising of my old notebooks onto #Birdtrack.
Late August 2002, my wife is heavily pregnant and I can’t sleep either.
Decide to go sea watching off of Hartland point (north Devon) in pretty benign conditions.

Merlin can name a bird from a few seconds of song or a single photo. Here's a six-step routine for testing that name against field marks, range, season and your own evidence before it goes into eBird or BirdTrack.
